折扇

參考翻譯:

Chinese Fans
During the late Qing Dynasty, a large number of Chinese fans exquisitely carved and gorgeously painted were produced in Canton (now called Guang dong). These fans later were in good graces of western merchants. After they were shipped to Europe and America, they became fashionable accessories for noblewomen. The materials used to make Chinese fans were mostly exquisitely carved ivory, pearls and shells and lacquer. These Chinese fans showed many figures of Mandarins and their consorts. Mysterious oriental sentiment as they presented, each lady in upper-middle class family at that time owned a Chinese fan to show off her wealth and nobility.

1.雕刻精美、描繪華麗:“精美”可譯為exquisitely; “華麗”可譯為gorgeously；這兩個詞都不常用，也可以用beautifully一詞表達。
2.被…青睞:可譯為 find favour in one's eyes 或 be in good graces of,屬固定表達。
3.運往:譯此詞時需注意到19世紀的主要運輸工具是船運，所以最好用ship。
4.成為西方貴婦的重要時尚配件:運往歐洲自然是提供給“西方”貴婦，英譯時不必再譯出western;配件為accessories,注意該詞的拼寫。
5.清朝官員:可直譯為Qin officials。但在英語中也可以用Mandarin來表示舊中國的官員。
6.夫人:在書面語中表達“夫人”用consort比wife要更正式一些。
7.情調(diào):指“情感體驗”，可譯為sentiment或者sentimental tone。
